BIOENERGY USE AND PRODUCTION.

Bioenergy is energy derived from plant matter – what is known as biomass. Green plants capture solar energy and store it as chemical energy. The energy is stored in the form of cell walls in the plants’ stalks, stems, and leaves and as oils or starch in the seeds, fruits, or roots. Both plants and the waste materials derived from them – such as sawdust, wood wastes, and agricultural wastes – are referred to as biomass.

Biomass can be used directly as a solid fuel to produce heat. It can also be converted to other energy carriers such as liquid and gaseous fuels, as well as electrical energy. For example, biomass from distilleries in Brasil produces such an excess of electrical energy that its realization makes spirit cheaper than oil. Sugar cane alone can produce 50% energy in the cane-growing countries. Biomass utilization may economize annually 6 mln tones of organic fuel. Bioenergy encompasses a variety of renewable energy technologies that are locally available and used the world over. Wood and dung have been burned for thousands of years in fireplaces and stoves for heating and cooking. In several industrialized countries some cities burn trash to generate electricity.

Industries around the globe burn wood wastes – bark and branches – to generate heat and electricity for running mills. Charcoal provides the energy for steelmaking in Brazil. In that particular country 50 percent of the transportation fuel is ethanol derived from the fer­mentation and distillation of sugar from sugar cane. Biogas digesters use bacteria to decompose (break down) biomass. These devices are widely used in China and India to convert animal and plant wastes into the gas methane, which can be used for heating, cooking, and electricity. Biomass used in these and other ways currently accounts for about 38 percent of the energy used in developing countries. Bioenergy contributes substantially to meeting global energy requirements.

For example, today an increasing use of biomass to produce electrical and thermal energy is observed. Turbogenerators working on the biomass gasification products can successful compete with traditional thermal, nuclear, and hydraulic energy resources.
